Exception Code - STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xC0000005) - within a DirectX component => typically, passed a bad pointer to a data buffer to a DirectX routine.
Exception Code - STATUS_HEAP_CORRUPTION (0xC0000374) - within ntdll.dll => typically, passed a bad pointer in a free/delete routine to the memory management routines (contained within ntdll.dll)
It is possible the game you are trying to play is causing these issues by scribbling over these pointers (though unlikely). Is it evident in a specific game, or randomly on all games?
Randomly getting these events usually indicates failing/failed memory (or some other system component). You don't really want to run any further stress tests until you think you have fixed the issue (you risk causing BSODs if you do).
First steps would be to ensure your components are receiving adequate ventilation and not overheating. Give your case a good clean out, re-seat your memory / cards / power connections. Verify your bios settings, if your running aggressive memory settings tone them down.
